the weather is totally disgusting. cold and rainy for days and my umbrella is very broken.

cecile said she would go to abaco except it's raining, and i said yeah, but when it's raining there's less people, and you can drink hot tea, which is cheaper than cold tea.

she said yeah, you're right - there are good things even about rain!

.

so i just walked into abaco all drizzled on, and i walked up to the second floor where the girls who work here sit waiting for customers, and i clutched at my beautiful newly finished yellow knit hat and made a "it's gross raining outside" face at them, and they smiled at me beatifically.

they asked if i wanted a menu and i said no, a té cereza, and they smiled some more. then my favorite one brought it up to me on the third floor and i smiled and she smiled and said "you're in your spot."

i am a regular.
